Why Bitcoin is down 1.8% today
Analysis
Bitcoin fell 1.8% over the past 24 hours as upside momentum appeared to stall near the $80K area alongside softer ETF flow dynamics, which can reduce incremental spot demand. Sentiment also cooled after Decrypt reported that Strategy’s Bitcoin buying pace dropped sharply (down 91%) amid a cooldown, removing a notable source of consistent bid support.
